Pyraminx: (4.54), 2.76, 3.10, 2.23, (2.22) => 2.70
Guess who is practising 1-look pyraminx :rolleyes:

Megaminx: 1:09.29, (1:19.50), 1:11.72, (1:08.10), 1:08.80 => 1:09.94
Even after adjusting it, lubing it and breaking it in, it still turns like moo-crap... (yeah, I lost my megaminx during my last comp, so I just took the best MF8 white vII I could find at the venue...)

FMC: 37
NISS solution... 17 moves F2L by accident on normal scramble, and 20 move LL on inverse scramble... no cancellations (I threw out my solution by accident :/ )

I screamed a lot this week.

2x2x2BLD: 30.81 29.84 DNF
3x3x3BLD: 1:33.55 1:18.68 DNF
4x4x4BLD: 6:43.47 5:20.92 5:38.22
5x5x5BLD: 10:56.49 11:56.27 DNF
6x6x6BLD: DNF
7x7x7BLD: DNF
Fewest Moves: 42 moves
Scramble: B2 U2 R' D2 R2 U' L D2 F L2 B' R' B2 R B2 D2 F' R'

Solution: U' B U2 B' U2 F' U B U' F U' B2 D' F R F' D B F' L F L2 U2 L U L' B2 R' U R L B2 L B L B2 U2 R2 U2 R F' D (42 moves)

I don't believe in taking a DNF in fewest moves. I put all of my effort into finding a good solution, and I was frustrated at just not finding anything good at all. With only 10 minutes left I did a mostly linear solution to get this. Luckily I found a COLL with a skip, or it would have been even more turns.

Inverse scramble

2x2x2: D' F R' U2 R2
pseudo-2x2x3: U2 B2 L' B' L' B2 L'
orient edges: R' U' R B2 L U' L'
F2L minus 1 pair: U2 L2 F' L' F
ZBF2L: B' D' F R' F' D B2 U B'
COLL and skip EPLL with 2 move cancellation: F' B U B' U' F U2 B U2 B' U
Done BLD

3x3x3: DNF DNF DNF 1:26.97 DNF = DNF
4x4x4: DNF 5:32.28 8:06.15 5:57.46 DNF = DNF
5x5x5: 12:39.53 (10:44.94) 11:48.66 10:57.50 (DNF) = 11:48.56

This week I did my 3 fastest 5x5x5BLD solves ever, and 5 of my top 10 fastest solves ever. I also got over 50% accuracy for 5x5x5 (75% actually) for the first time since I don't know how long ago. I don't know what happened between last week and this week, but I'm glad it happened!
